In fact, I am much better today. I would say that I am close to being 100%. I slept a lot this weekend, and I shirked my duties, but I think it has all paid off.
Update the Second: In other news, the phone in my office just rang. I did not even think it was plugged in, as I can only remember it ringing maybe 2-3 times in as many years. Some poor, confused undergrad needed to talk to a woman who apparently uses this office (there is a picture of her on a shelf), but alas no luck for him.
Update the Third: However, the one time this person WAS in the office, she introduced me to my first departmental crush of the semester. I am very grateful for that, as I spent a good deal of time speaking with said crush on Friday, and she and I are supposed to go out at some point in the next week. We will see if this happens ("Pessimism" is my middle name), but at least she is extremely intelligent and attractive. I think our political leanings are diametrically opposed, but I can deal with that, because she can hold her own in a conversation/argument.
Update the Fourth: I am having a great deal of motivational trouble (still) and I want to do my work, but something is blocking my ability to think clearly. Hopefully this will pass soon.
Update the Fifth: One of my favorite professors just told me she has to have a biopsy...but she did not say of what. Her dog, one of my favorite pet sitting wards, needs a biopsy as well. Also my mother is going to have her gall bladder removed right before Christmas. I really don't think I can deal with all of these health problems right now.

I have to go to That Damn Chef's class. It is mighty tempting to come up with a reason for not going....
I think you should just go to class. Even if you only learn how to deal with a bastard teacher who doesn't teach, it is better than sitting around with time to think. (In my humble opinion, at least). :)
I would probably be a very calm deity. I wouldn't require much beyond the occasional human sacrifice to appease me when I was moody.
But I ended up not going to class because I did need time to think. I've been busy job hunting over the weekend and I never have time during the week to do anything, between class and work. If there's one class I figure I can skip and not do any real harm it's this one. Not as if we actually learn anything. In fact if I can manage it I'd like to try and get out of my lease by December. And I don't care if the classes I'm taking transfer or not (well, except sanitation, but that's a different instructor and I don't need to retake that class, I'm doing pretty well in it). I want to retake at the very least the Basic Food Prep class. And if they have any eqivalent to the apprenticeship class I'll retake that.
If this is what you want, I think this is what you need to do. The only thing I hope is that you keep pushing towards what you want. The day we stop striving is the day we give up on our future.
Now I'm really glad I gave you a laugh earlier today.
